Rave Review for Scott Beetham, knowledgeable and trustworthy Estate Planning legal resource

Scott was an outstanding resource as we produced estate and will documents for the first time. He was generous with his time, common sense about explaining terms and scenarios for our understanding, and communicative so that our time together was well-spent and efficient. Scott is a very pleasant ind...ividual, so the interactions never seems strained or formal. I would also comment on his excellent follow-up and after-the-fact communications to ensure our docs were stored well, that we had access to the digital files, and provide ongoing guidance about any potential revision based on purchases we had made or changes in income status. I highly recommend Scott Beetham for personal legal work.

It was easy working with Scott P. Beetham

I worked with Scott for my will preparation and he was very helpful and easy to work with. He explained us things to make it easy for us and kept us informed through the whole process. I would definitely recommend him.

Highest Ratings for Scott P. Beetham

My wife and I had no idea where to start our estate planning. Mr. Beetham was extremely patient, thoughtful and helpful. He knew all the right questions to ask and guided us to an estate plan that far exceeded our expectations for thoroughness and completeness. There is no doubt he would be my first ...choice for professional and friendly legal advice.

Scott P. Beetham

Scott was referred to me from another lawyer as someone who would be able to help me make changes to my will right after my divorce. He was very sensitive to the fact that it was not only a difficult time for me, but also I was unsure of how to go about getting it done properly. Scott explained ever...y detail with patience and clarity until I understood it. I recently was in need of his services again, so I returned knowing that I would receive excellent service.
